Specify the following parameters:
Naming Convention. The template is a
https://handlebarsjs.com/ expression. The available fields are as follows:
organization. The organization name.
repository. The repository name.
isPrivate. Specifies whether the repository
is private.
isArchived. Specifies whether the
repository is archived.
isFork. Specifies whether the repository is
a fork.
languages. A list of languages in the
repository.
Note: When the name (chosen by the naming convention) for a
repository corresponds to an existing SRM Project, SRM will
associate the repository with the existing project rather than
creating a new project, but only if the user has the
manage role for that project.
Parent Projects. Enables you to specify a parent project for
the projects you are creating.
Analyses. Instructs SRM to run an analysis after creating the
new projects.
Click Create Projects.
The new projects will appear on the Projects
page.
Clicking the git branch icon opens the SCM Configuration
window, which displays the connection name and repository URL.
To delete the repository, click the Delete Configuration
button.
For projects that are set up with a git configuration, SRM will automatically create
a ZIP archive of the files from that git repo and include it in the analysis prep
area as a "source from" item, as shown in the example below.
